Should we enforce > phylink bindings on their schemas regardless? Generally, describing the MDIO bus in DT is optional because the devices on the bus can be discovered. But then sometimes a device can't be discovered or has additional properties which aren't discoverable. So in general, an MDIO bus in DT should always be optional, but always supported (and validated) if present. If the device has a separate node for the MDIO controller (i.e. one with a compatible and reg for the MDIO controller register), then that should always be there (because the h/w is always there).

I'd like to discuss the influence of the Linux drivers on the devicetree bindings. Before that let me clarify these "phylink" bindings. They are certain rules to properly describe the link of the ethernet controller. Any of the phy-handle, pcs-handle, sfp, and fixed-link properties describe the link. They are already defined on ethernet-controller.yaml, just not enforced. Why I called them phylink bindings, is because when phylink is used on the ethernet controller driver, only then we can be sure that the link descriptions on the ethernet controller are needed. Because, some drivers don't need the link descriptions on the ethernet controller as they can search a certain MDIO bus to find and connect a MAC to a PHY or set up a fixed link without looking at the devicetree. I don't like this approach because, as you said, devicetree bindings should describe the hardware, not driver policies. So I propose that we don't let Linux drivers interfere with dt-bindings. To that extent: - Link descriptions must be required on ethernet controllers. We don't care whether some Linux driver can or cannot find the PHY or set up a fixed link without looking at the devicetree. - The MDIO bus description on an ethernet controller describes that the hardware comes with an MDIO bus. The MDIO property is optional not because some Linux driver can find and map the PHYs to MACs without DT descriptions but because the hardware doesn't have to use that or any MDIO bus. Let's also talk about the elephant in the room: DSA bindings. Distributed Switch Architecture is a Linux subsystem, not a hardware property. Devicetree bindings are supposed to describe the hardware, yet we have bindings specifically for DSA so that the DSA driver can properly control the hardware. Although I see dsa.yaml and dsa-port.yaml mostly consist of describing an ethernet switch with CPU port(s), there're properties that are specific to DSA, such as dsa,member on dsa.yaml and dsa-tag-protocol and label on dsa-port.yaml. Depending on how I get responses, I will address my patches. Then I can further discuss the DSA bindings. Arınç

That can lead to future surprises, and breakage. Something which is not used is not tested, and so sometimes wrong, and nobody knows. Say the driver is extended to a new device and actually does need to use this never before used information. You then find it is wrong, and you get a regression. We have had issues like this before. There are four rgmii phy-link modes. We have had PHY drivers which ignored one of those modes, it silently accepted it, but did not change the hardware to actually use that mode. The PHY continues to use its reset defaults or strapping, and it worked. A lot of device trees ended up using this mode. And it was not the same as reset defaults/strapping.

I would say dsa,member does describe the hardware. It provides two bits of information: Which cluster of switches does this switch belong to. You probably can derive it using the DSA links between switches, which is also a hardware property. But having it in device tree makes it simpler. Which switch is this within a cluster. You need to be able to say: Send this frame out Port X of switch Y. How does a switch know it is Y? It could be strapping, which is clearly a hardware property. dsa-tag-protocol is similar to phy-mode. It tells you the protocol running between the CPU port and the SoC master interface. You often can imply it, but again, it could be determined by strapping on the switch. label is an interesting one, and probably would not be accepted if it was proposed now. But it has been around a long time. It also does describe the hardware, it is what is printed on the case next to the RJ45. To make the user experience simpler, we then try to make the linux interface name match the label on the case. Andrew

It looks like the root cause here was the lack of dt-bindings to only allow the phy-mode values the hardware supports. What I see here is the driver change should've been tested on all different hardware the driver controls then the improper describing of hardware on the devicetree source file addressed. If a devicetree change that ensures proper describing of hardware is found to break a driver in the future, then that exposes a bug on the driver and the driver will have to be fixed. I don't see this upholding writing dt-bindings that ensures proper describing of the hardware. > >> Although I see dsa.yaml and dsa-port.yaml mostly consist of describing an >> ethernet switch with CPU port(s), there're properties that are specific to >> DSA, such as dsa,member on dsa.yaml and dsa-tag-protocol and label on >> dsa-port.yaml. > > I would say dsa,member does describe the hardware.

Looks like we can incorporate dsa.port and dsa-port.yaml into ethernet-switch.yaml and ethernet-switch-port.yaml with adjustments. Arınç

That would not help. The hardware supported all 4 RGMII modes. So listing all four in the dt-binding would be correct. But the driver for the hardware had a bug, and so silently ignored one of the modes. That then masked the bugs in board DT files. > What I see here is the driver change should've been tested on all > different hardware the driver controls then the improper describing > of hardware on the devicetree source file addressed. Which is what did happen. But it took a while to find all those broken boards. For a period of time, we had regressions. Bugs happen. It is a fact of life. But we want those bugs to be easy to find as possible. If we force DT writers to add properties which the driver never uses, they are going to be bugs in those properties. And those bugs are not going to be easy to find, and quite likely, they will only be found a long time after they are added. We should not be adding unused properties and bugs just to keep a yaml checker happy. Andrew

Then I will refrain from enforcing link descriptions altogether as I can't justify enforcing them on ethernet controllers selectively because certain Linux drivers don't make use of the link properties and may expose bugs if used. The link properties are still allowed for all ethernet controllers though, just not enforced. But I suppose it's better to optionally find the bug instead of causing a regression then finding the bug. Arınç

All the drivers that utilise phylink_fwnode_phy_connect() directly or through phylink_of_phy_connect(): - DSA - drivers/net/ethernet/mscc/ocelot_net.c - mscc,vsc7514-switch.yaml - drivers/net/ethernet/microchip/sparx5/sparx5_netdev.c - microchip,sparx5-switch.yaml - drivers/net/ethernet/altera/altera_tse_main.c - altr,tse.yaml - drivers/net/ethernet/xilinx/xilinx_axienet_main.c - xlnx,axi-ethernet.yaml - drivers/net/ethernet/mediatek/mtk_eth_soc.c - mediatek,net.yaml - drivers/net/ethernet/ti/am65-cpsw-nuss.c - ti,k3-am654-cpsw-nuss.yaml - drivers/net/ethernet/atheros/ag71xx.c - qca,ar71xx.yaml - drivers/net/ethernet/freescale/dpaa/dpaa_eth.c - fsl,fman-dtsec.yaml - drivers/net/ethernet/microchip/lan966x/lan966x_main.c - microchip,lan966x-switch.yaml - drivers/net/ethernet/marvell/mvpp2/mvpp2_main.c - marvell,pp2.yaml - drivers/net/ethernet/freescale/dpaa2/dpaa2-mac.c - fsl,qoriq-mc-dpmac.yaml - drivers/net/ethernet/cadence/macb_main.c - cdns,macb.yaml - Can register non-OF-based bus. - drivers/net/ethernet/stmicro/stmmac/stmmac_main.c - snps,dwmac.yaml - Can register non-OF-based bus. - drivers/net/ethernet/marvell/mvneta.c - marvell-armada-370-neta.txt - drivers/net/ethernet/freescale/enetc/enetc.c - fsl-enetc.txt RFC: The drivers marked with "can register non-OF-based bus" seem to search the MDIO bus to connect the PHY to the MAC using phylink_connect_phy() and/or phy_find_first() if phylink bindings don't exist. Should we enforce phylink bindings on their schemas regardless? DSA, like any other driver utilising the Linux MDIO infrastructure, can register a bus. On certain conditions, it registers the MDIO bus of the switch it controls non-OF-based. We can know when DSA won't create any non-OF-based buses. That leaves us with only OF-based buses in which case we can enforce phylink bindings for user ports. The bindings are already enforced for shared ports so we can enforce the bindings for all ports on the switch schemas which will achieve the same result with fewer lines. By looking at whether the mdio child node exists and what is explained on it, we can enforce phylink bindings. - mscc,vsc7514-switch.yaml - Enforce phylink bindings for all ports. - arrow,xrs700x.yaml - Enforce phylink bindings for all ports. - brcm,b53.yaml - Enforce phylink bindings for all ports if "mdio" is defined. - brcm,sf2.yaml - Enforce phylink bindings for all ports. - hirschmann,hellcreek.yaml - Enforce phylink bindings for all ports. - mediatek,mt7530.yaml - Enforce phylink bindings for all ports if "mdio" is defined. - microchip,ksz.yaml - Enforce phylink bindings for all ports if "mdio" is defined. - microchip,lan937x.yaml - Enforce phylink bindings for all ports if "mdio" is defined. - mscc,ocelot.yaml - Enforce phylink bindings for all ports. - nxp,sja1105.yaml - Enforce phylink bindings for all ports. - qca8k.yaml - Enforce phylink bindings for all ports if "mdio" is defined. - realtek.yaml - Enforce phylink bindings for all ports if "mdio" is defined. - renesas,rzn1-a5psw.yaml - Enforce phylink bindings for all ports. - ar9331.txt - Enforce phylink bindings for all ports. - lan9303.txt - Enforce phylink bindings for all ports if "mdio" is defined. - lantiq-gswip.txt - Enforce phylink bindings for all ports. - marvell.txt - Enforce phylink bindings for all ports if "mdio" is defined. - vitesse,vsc73xx.txt - Enforce phylink bindings for all ports if "mdio" is defined.
